Kurt Cobain and Krist (then Chris) Novoselic met in 1985 and formed Fecal Matter, whom may have some demo tapes floating around. After their first
drummer left (Aaron Burkhart), two unknown drummers and temporary Dale Crover of the Melvins took the spot for a couple months before Chad
Channing took the drums. They hired guitarist Jason Everman to do live work (although he is listed on the Bleach credits, he had no contribution in
making the record), but he soon left to join Soundgarden. Soon Chad Channing left, leaving the drummer spot open to temporaries Dan Peters of
Mudhoney and Dale Crover. They soon hired Dave Grohl of the Scream, and switched labels from Sub Pop to DGC (Geffen).
